Bambi and the Duke
Disowned for being a human, Vivian was taken in as a maid at the age of seven by the Carmichael household. Serving one of the most respected and elite pureblood families in Bonelake, there were rules. Rules that must be followed by all servants and maids. Like everyone else, Vivian was repeatedly reminded not to disobey the rules. But before she could learn to blend into the background like the other servants, the Duke's young son calls to her, “Bambi.” And all hell breaks loose. ----- "What? Never seen a bruise before?" Leonard scoffed at the girl. "Does it hurt?" Vivian asked, gently kneeling beside him and examining the several bruises covering his face. "Not that much." Remembering what her mother used to do when she got a bruise, Vivian brought her sleeve to her mouth and blew warm air on it before placing it on the boy's cheek, taking him by surprise. Leonard swatted her hand away, a hint of pink appearing on his cheeks embarrassed, "W-what are you doing?" "Mama told me this will make the pain go away," the girl held her hand close to her chest as she shared her past memory. "I’m not a child!” Leonard huffed at her. “I don’t think you’re a child,” she stared at him with a crystal-clear gaze. Taken aback, Leonard locked eyes with her for two seconds before shaking his head. “Don’t worry about it. They’ll heal in a day or two anyways," he reassured her before getting up and taking a seat at the table where his books were placed. "Odd girl," he muttered to himself as he pulled the top book from the stack and lost himself in it.
Court room- Part 1
In the tall building of the council which was surrounded by trees, she followed the tall lean man. Her footsteps quick as her feet walked to keep up with the elder councilman, her hands holding a file which she was asked to carry along with her. The corridor was filled with other councilmen who were standing at the sideline while waiting for the main door of a particular room to be opened.
Vivian had been reading the files which Leonard had asked her to complete while the three councilmen- Leonard, Heuren, and Dutan had left the building to attend a parallel case which had been given to them. While she was at her given task, Lionel had entered the room to find Dutan gone who usually wrote down the notes for him during a meeting.
"Grab your quill and parchment with the file, and come with me."
That was all he had told and she had jumped on her feet to take what he had asked before hurrying herself out so that she wouldn't be lost in the building.
